thats your opinion. for me the n8 browser is unusable. when i was waiting for my 3rd n900 to arrive i tried to use the n8 and got that frustrated i nearly smashed it. luckily my gf felt my pain and lent me her desire HD for a couple of weeks. was a decent experience, but no n900.

by the way i would only like the 808 to sell, as its worth the most.

symbian is dead to me, even though i followed nearly evey model since 7650. yeah it was fun at the time but now looking back, spending 500 pounds for half a feature per upgraid, i was a complete mug.

the browser of the N8 is a pain. but it's a smartphone and thankfully there's always opera though ( you don't stay with just IE on your PC , do you?)

anyways, the N8 is a highly successfull phone and excells in numerous ways.
materials, battery, support, hdmi out, gorilla glass, great loudspeaker and mp3 player, flawless camera, fantastic free and fast gps, usb-otg, 2 way charging, fm transmtter, radio with rds and more

stuff that you still struggle to find all packed-in in todays devices.
and let's not forget how great of a phone it is. signal, call quality and loudness.

it's unfair to compare it to the N900 (unfair for both devices)
N8 is a great smartphone. The N900 is in a different category. it's a mediocre phone (at best) and a great mini computer. the only device that hasn't bored me after 2 years of use.
